Indiana Glass Pedestal Compote – Vintage Blue Iridescent Kings Crown Candy Dish (5")
💬 "In the right light, this little dish can easily be mistaken for silver instead of glass; very different from the usual iridescent blue glass one usually sees. It was an excellent price and the shipping charge was not excessive. Best of all, it arrived so well packed that I doubt USPS could have damaged it if they tried. I'm very happy with my purchase."
This Indiana Glass compote dish is a stunner, and we’re glad it’s found a new home where its unique iridescence can shine. There’s something magical about a piece that looks like silver yet sparkles with blue tones—perfect for adding a bit of elegance to any display!
